BuffaloRush

This is an interesting thread and I love questioning some of these historical decisions. I do wonder if some of the veterans will give you crap about not posting a thread about college QB’s or posting a “we have too many holes to fill” in the headline Overall I would say that the trade was worth it, considering that he was a cornerstone of a team that went to 4 straight Super Bowls. Clearly they did bypass some exceptional talent, and perhaps their combined accomplishments are greater than Bennet individually but but I think this was the right trade for the Bills.

Again... Did Buddy Nix pass on drafting a QB in the top 10 twice? Yes or no? You are right - it’s getting to the point where you can’t post anything without getting insulted or harassed for not Adding topics the way individual members want

I misread your thread. I thought you were asking which guys took games over and had a bigger impact that Mario. Those 2 players certainly did.

So Buddy Nix didn’t pass on drafting a QB in the Top 10 twice? Thats all im saying

JJ Watt and Khalil Mack LAMP thread? Thanks for being such a diva @LabattBlue. I will post whatever I want. also I don’t recall this being a Buffalo Bills Current Events Message Board. The history of the team in free agency is topical and I will continue to post things Ike this

Ironically McCargo, as bad as he was, played 5 seasons with the Bills. Quite the long tenure for a player who was injured and underperformed regularly. Maybin had about a half-season run with the Jets. He racked up 6 sacks as a pass rush specialist which is not bad, but certainly not worthy of his draft status. Though many on this message board would disagree if he did it as a Bill

Got in man... some fool in here said I had a LAMP post. I swear some of the members here can be such divas about a damn message board

Never record a sack with the Bills.... some members of this forum consider players good draft picks for a Bills GM if they had success on other teams after they left Buffalo

Trading up for John McCargo was simply unacceptable! Eric Flowers was another horrendous pick

LOL ok.... some fools in this message board have said that I had a LAMP post. They can go to hades, I’ll still post whatever I want. This is a message board after all. And I didn’t think you have a LAMP post

Honestly dude I have no idea what LAMP even means.

You have to thank everyone’s favorite GM Buddy Nix who drafted twice in the top 10

I am seriously wondering if the Bills are giving serious consideration to Jackson at 12 or Rudolph at 22. The only hope would be for Cleveland to trade out #4.

Another LAMP thread...LOL

One outlier season? He was the 1995 Defensive MVP and had a quantifiable improveable for the defense. Funny even during his best season, I don’t remember Mario ever in the discussion or getting one single vote for for DMVP.

LAMP thread? maybe I should just start a new thread about rumors from WGR’s B-Team DJ or start yet another thread about how the Bills have “too many holes to fill” before drafting a aQB.

Who cares? Because the guy wasn’t worth the huge salary we were paying him. That money could have been spent on several better players. Remember the 2012-2013 that Mario played on were still among the worst in the league. His presence alone didn’t have the drastic improvements that you would think a player that commanded that kind of salary would. IMO Bryce Paup in 1995 was a much better signing for the Bills than Mario

No, You said the topic was not debatebable as to indicate that most fans felt the same way. He fact the the poll is around 50/50 shows that this is, in fact, a very debatable topic. Based on this poll, I think Bills fans would rather have a DE

Because it was 54-46 when I posted. I think many of us who voted “no,” don’t feel that he lived up to his contract as being the highest paid defensive player in the NFL. I can’t recall anyone saying that Mario was one of the best players in the NFL, yet he was paid like one

Funny because, go figure, not all fans feel the same way you do.

You are in the minority, because when you take a look at the polls its nearly split 50/50. There's no doubt Mario had a few great seasons, but keep in mind he was the highest paid defensive player in the NFL. Do you really feel that his performance lived up to that monster contract?

Yeah I agree with you here. I wouldn't call the deal a bust, but I never thought that Mario played like the best defender in the NFL as he was paid to do.
